Howcome my photo's don't open in a seperate window?

Hi,
I have this little problem with my iWeb photo pages. After creating them and publishing them, all looks fine. But when you visit the page, (in Safari or on a PC using Explorer or Firefix) you can click the photo, but nothing happens.
They're supposed to open bigger in a new window. It happened the very first time I published my site, I remember that still, but now the links don't seem to do anything anymore.
I read some posts about the same problem, but they concerned errors when clicking the link. But I get no error, I get nothing.
Anyone?

Orbi,
You may have accidentally put a layer over the photos which is blocking any clicking action.
Open your site in iWeb and try clicking on a photo.
If clicking on it doesn't produce the action you expect, you may have a layer on top of it. Try to select the offending layer and once selected use the inspector to send the layer to the back. The photos must be on the topmost layer for them to work as links.

Interactive PDF button to open pdf in seperate window

I'm creating an Interactive Pdf in InDesign and I want my pdf to open another supplemental pdf (of seperate but related information) but I want to be able to return to the main pdf when I finish looking at the supplemental information. Is there a way to make the supplemental pdf open in a seperate window? or is there a way to create a back button in the supplemental information linking it back to the main pdf?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

As far as I know, there's no way to do this in InDesign.
However, when creating a link in Acrobat Pro to another PDF file, you're given the option of having it open in the same window or in another window.So you should probably create those links in Acrobat instead.

2 simple questions about opening and closing seperate windows via iWeb...

I'm a web newbie, so please excuse me for my lack of terminology. My questions are... 1. How do i have iWeb open a separate browser window "simultaneously" from my main page to display a quicktime movie or piece of artwork? 2. Is it possible with iWeb to create a "close" window button within that same seperate window so that the veiwer does not have to click the red button in the upper left hand corner. Thanks guys and girls!

Sorry! i meant I tried all of the links that are on your web page. There are quite a few of them and I watched most of the movies but there aren't any that open on a new window with a link to close it. I thought that happened because I had a pop-up blocker but even after dissabling the blocker and trying opening some of them again they still opened in the same window. I did come accross a couple of links that changed the window and made it do wacky thinks like moving fast left and right and forcing the window to get smaller. Kinda fun but this is not what I had in mind.. lol The rollover javascript is nice but I couldn't find it on the page's source. Is it the part that says "<script language="JavaScript1.2" src=..."? I'm just curious to know which software you used to make the flash movies and how difficult it was. Maya rocks by the way!

Flash 11.8.800.94 opens in a seperate window?

I'm having a bit of trouble with running flash on firefox. If i'm trying to open a page that requires flash (youtube), then the player opens up in a seperate window. The player will be in the top left corner of my screen instead of where it's supposed to be on the page. This only happens on firefox and I can't figure out why. It's really weird and only started recently. I can't tell if this is a problem with flash or firefox. I have been having problems with updating firefox though (if that has anything to do with it). Any help that can be provided would be appreciated.

Try restarting with add-ons disabled (From the Help menu) and see if the issue persists. If it doesn't it's a Firefox add-on that's causing it. I'm curious as to what it would be, because I've seen this reported twice more here, but have never seen it myself.

Pics don;t open in the Edit window when double clicked

Hi
Need some help please.
I had some problems with iPhoto and after trying to rebuild it etc etc etc, decided to reinstall everything. I backed up the entire library to a DVD, deleted the current library and then created a new one.
Placed DVD in drive and then dragged the the folder iPhoto library into Pictures (which was empty)
When I opened iPhoto everything looked ok. All the folders were there and all the pics were where they should have been.
Unfortunately I cannot open the pics in the Edit window. Just shows a Grey square with an Exclamation mark in the centre.
I have searched all the other threads but still haven't found any information that has helped.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Jeff

The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents. The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder. Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
If the rebuild doesn't work, then you will need to create and populate a new library:
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same film rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual rolls to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

How to open .mac bookmark seperate window in Safari?

I used to use Firefox or Camino and when at .mac I could click on 'bookmarks' and a new window would open with the bookmarks more or less displayed [not necessarily updated ]
In Safari a new tab opens but .mac does not appear to offer the same options for the frame as it does when it is a new, albeit small, window.
I enabled pop-ups and also have Saft and Stand installed.
Thank you!
iMac 2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo 20" 512MB (early 2006) Mac OS X (10.4.6) iBook G4 OS X 10.4.7 256MB

In Stand, uncheck "Open '_blank" Link in a New Tab".
I don't know if Saft also has a similar feature since I don't use it though.

I do not want my firefox to open in tabs, I want it to open different windows, how can I reset it back to open in a seperate window?

I do not like opening up a tab and then typing in a URL to go where I want to go. It was much better when I could search for something, and it would come up in a separate window. How do I change it back?

You can hold down the Shift key while left-clicking a link on web pages.<br />
You can add a New Window button to a toolbar via "View > Toolbars > Customize" to open a new window when needed. You can also drag (text) links onto that button to open links in a new widow.

From what I understand RAW photos are supposed to open in raw in photoshop CC. I don't understand why my RAW photos don't open in RAW in photoshop CC or Lightroom 5

From what I understand RAW photos are supposed to open in raw in photoshop CC. I don't understand why my RAW photos don't open in RAW in photoshop CC or Lightroom 5

Has the behavior changed compared to how it used to open ? If so, do you refer to the Camera RAW window similar to this: http://screenshots.en.sftcdn.net/en/scrn/78000/78026/adobe-camera-raw-22.jpg
What is the file extension of your photos ?
In Lightroom, there is no special way of opening a RAW file vs. JPEG. They all open the same. What is the Lightroom behavior ? Can you post a screenshot ?

Web photo gallery won't open on internet... why?

I hope someone can help me with this.
I always made slideshows with Photoshop until I got Elements. The newest version of Photoshop does not have that option anymore.
I made a web photo gallery with elements, put it up in Dreamweaver, made a link, tested it on three browsers and it all worked perfectly.
I then uploaded it all to a server.
When I go to the page on internet, the link takes me to the index of the photo gallery but the slideshow does not open. It seems like the index file does not open the resource folder.
I have compared the site on my computer with the site on the server and everything is exactly the same. The photo gallery is on th server with the index file and resource folder.
I can't understand why the photo gallery doesn't behave on internet like it does on my computer.
Can anyone explain this to me?
I really like the way the new photo gallery looks compared with the slideshow made with my older version of Photoshop and would like to use it. Plus the fact that I can control the speed of the slideshow on Elements is a real boon.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
I will try to be as explicate as possible.
This is a site that I maintain for a marathon. This is the 10th year. The participants contribute a series of photos that I have always made into slide shows.
I have a page that references slideshows from 2009 for example. I made these photos into slideshows using Photoshop CS3. The different folders are called "Slideshow xxx" with the corresponding index file. When I link to the index file in a certain folder the slideshow opens in a blank page and wonderful.
Now, this year, I have done the same thing using Element with the results I mention in my origiinal message: the photo gallery does not open in any browser in spite of being linked to the index file in the web photo gallery I created with Element.
What happens when I go to the index file is simply nothing. I do not get an error message.
You can see for yourself by going to
http://www.el-ocejon.com/fotos%202010.html
and clicking on either of the two last options (the first links to a picasa page that is not a problem).
The solution is simple: create a slideshow using Photoshop CS3 and forget the whole thing. But I would like to know what the problem is here and why I cannot get the photo gallery created with Elements to work on the internet.
Or is this a "two steps forward and one step back" issue with Photoshop?

Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically? I've tried PDF and Word, but worked only in Mail. Lost formatting when just copied and pasted in email.

Is there a way to do this?

Are you sure PDF won't work? It should as what you're trying to do is pretty much what it is designed for (PDF - Portable Document Format). On a Mac anywone who receives the file should be able to see it in all its page layout glory by using the app Preview or Adobe Reader. Same on a PC, the file should be viewable as a PDF file using Adobe Reader and probably some other viewer (don't use PCs so not sure what other apps).
What application are you creating the file in and are you sure you're exporting it correctly in PDF format, fonts and images embedded?

How to open photos photos in a seperate window

Hi all, I recently ran across a website where the images were able to open in a seperate page as well as the usual photo gallery and slideshow. Does anyone have any insight as to how this is done?
This is a link to that website

I see what you're referring to. It must be a special theme. There are several 3rd party theme providers that might have that feature in it's download section. Google iDVD themes and see what you find.
I've not tried all of the iDVD dark themes so don't know if one one them will provide that enlargement. Maybe the theme used was modified but that's out of my realm.

Help with Publishing to a File - Photo Albums don't appear

I published to a file. I tested it and it looks good. I burned the folder to a CD in order to view it on another computer - specifically a PC. My webpages look right, but the photo albums don't appear. I can manually open the folders on the CD and verify that the photo jpg files are there. Any ideas? I am using iWeb 2.0.2.

Are you transferring the index.html file along with the website folder and double clicking the index file to launch the site in the PC browser?

Deleting photos than don't display in finder - just an icon not image

Hi
I have plugged in an old hard drive today I have not used for a while to get some old photos from. There are thousands on the drive, but I notice in finder than many of them display as .jpg icons in finder and not with an image of the photo. To no surprise, they don't open either. I think it might have been a problem with the drive they came from, but do have copies so not concerned.
Is there any quick way of deleting these thousands of non-working images from my hard drive to clear out the debris so I am only left with working photos.
Thanks in advance.
Matt

I whole-heartedly agree that although the big print giveth, sometimes the small print taketh away, DNG-wise.
I certainly would not convert my raw files to dng then throw away the originals. If Adobe provided a "revert from DNG" function, I'd recommend people give DNG a try (and not toss the originals), but as it stands:
(Adobe-converted) DNGs: great for limited, known, (usually Adobe-only) environments, but not for wholesale conversion of raws, not yet anyway (unless you don't mind locking yourself into an Adobe-only (or Adobe-mostly) software environment, in order to support "the cause").
PS - In my opinion, you may be going a little too far with this one:

"Adobe-only environments". Nope, sorry; that doesn't exist. Adobe makes software that runs on OSX and Windows.
I will bet $50 that buried in the OSX Lightroom code is reliance upon Quicktime. Adobe could rectify this. It's a lack of will, not technology.
I can be angry and upset but I will still use Lightroom because, in spite of this setback, LR produces DNGs that are smaller than TIFF and lossless PNG and produces better photos easier than other apps (including Aperture).
...and yes, I still believe Adobe's marketing is either fraudulent or just doesn't understand the technology.

Mail, preview, photo booth, will not open

After installing Leopard (on my 3rd attempt, clean install) mail, preview, and photo booth will not open at all. i'm opening them from the applications folder, not from the dock. i get an error message that says the programs unexpectedly quit. hopefully i don't have to do another installation. 3 is enough.
i thought it was interesting that these 3 programs are in order alphabetically, and every other program has opened fine.
any help/ideas would be great

Welcome to Apple Discussions:
You might check whether this is a preference corruption issue. For example, you can find the Mail preference file in [Username]/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Drag this file to your desktop (so you don't lose it). Then try relaunching Mail. If that works, a similar process might fix your problem with the other applications, too.
Please post back here if that helps. If it does, please mark this posting as having "Solved" your question. Thanks
